Lopez Obrador: Mexico's new president is 'stubborn' leftist

Mexico City (AFP) - "Stubborn" is among the many insults that have been hurled at Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the anti-establishment leftist who became Mexico's new president on Saturday. It is the start of a political regime change," Lopez Obrador, 65, said in his inaugural address. The man widely known by his initials AMLO is one of the most divisive figures in Mexican politics: his critics hate him as fervently as his fans love him.
